Is there really much difference between the standard EF 50mm f/1.8 and the f/1.4..?

Any advice welcome.

Well they differ in price and maximum aperture, in focus motor and speed, in build quality, and in bokeh, or the quality of the out of focus highlights, but in sharpness, resolution and contrast they are almost identical.

EDIT: I forgot to mention also weight.


Mark.
